Chapter 142



After last night's storm, the evolution of plants and animals is happening all over the world.

It rains in China at night. When the animals and plants are quietly changing, people are still asleep, and almost no one sees the specific changes of the animals and plants with their own eyes.

However, in the Western Hemisphere, on the other side of the Earth, the storm that caused such dramatic changes happened to strike during the day.

People had just experienced the earthquake and the cold, and had not had time to feel the footsteps of spring. In the blink of an eye, the whole world changed so much that they could hardly recognize it.

The largest city in Country A, City H.

H City, once known as the global financial center and one of the most prosperous cities in the world, has now become a paradise for animals and plants!

Especially the H City Central Park, which was once praised by countless tourists from all over the world and the citizens of H City, and covers an area of ​​1/6 of the entire city. It has now completely turned into a primitive jungle!

Those shrubs that were originally trimmed very beautifully into various shapes have all deviated from their original form as low shrubs and evolved into towering trees!

Countless green vines as thick as bowls wrapped around the skyscrapers and giant trees on both sides of Central Park, spiraling upwards. The buildings that originally had bright and shiny appearances were instantly covered by green plants, especially the shorter houses, which were almost completely buried by the vines.

The already towering trees in Central Park had undergone even greater changes. Not only did each one tower over the elevator buildings lining the park, but their massive trunks had even broken through the original sidewalks, squeezing the roads on either side of the park until they were deformed and twisted. Dozens of people couldn't close the trunk, and few could imagine that just a few hours earlier, this tree had been a mere sapling.

The tangled roots of the giant trees took deep root in the concrete slopes and road surface, squeezing out holes and cracks. Many houses close to Central Park were almost completely obscured by these bulging trees.

A group of white pigeons, about the size of turkeys, flew back and forth among the treetops, flapping their wings and making cooing sounds in their throats.

Above the city sky, a huge black eagle with a wingspan of three or four meters suddenly swooped down from the sky like a meteor, rushing towards the group of white pigeons among the treetops. Its sharp claws were like a pair of iron hooks and instantly grabbed one of them!

The pigeon, weighing more than ten pounds, was powerless to resist and died instantly! It was caught by the giant eagle and taken to the sky.

But before the giant eagle could fly completely into the sky, a patterned giant snake more than ten meters long, with a body thicker than a bucket, which was hovering on the top of a tree, suddenly jumped out and pounced on the giant eagle!

The giant snake was as fast as lightning, obviously much faster than the giant eagle carrying its prey. The giant snake opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp white fangs, and bit the giant eagle. The giant eagle only had time to scream before it was swallowed into the stomach of the giant snake with its tongue spitting out!

A young man and woman who had been hiding in the office building next door were so shocked by the scene that cold sweat almost broke out on their foreheads. They leaned against the wall and only dared to look at the situation outside the window through the gap.

"James, James... What should we do from now on? What should we do! Oh my God, this world is so horrible!" The blonde woman was so scared that tears were streaming down her face, but she didn't dare to cry out loud. She could only cover her mouth and cry while complaining, "Why do you think those damned government guys kept so many horrible animals in Central Park?! Wuuuu! A snake that big can swallow two people in one bite. What should we do from now on? I just saw a leopard flash by in Central Park! A leopard that big can eat at least one or two people in one meal, wuuuu! How can we escape these big snakes and leopards?"

Unlike China, a country with a large population, although Country A has a large land area, its population is only less than a quarter of China's.

Therefore, on weekdays, the ecological environment here is much better than that in China. From time to time, there are some wild animals on the park lawn, such as rabbits, squirrels, raccoons and the like.

Especially in this Central Park, there is a mini zoo established by the government. Although the zoo covers a small area, there are many species of animals, including cute ones such as parrots, monkeys, and pandas, as well as more aggressive animals such as pythons, brown bears, snow leopards, tigers, and gray wolves.

But after the storm, the originally good environment here turned into a deadly danger. Whether it was the giant eagle that was several meters long or the snake that was more than ten meters long hovering on the treetops, they were no longer able to deal with it. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. The woman felt that the fate of the pigeon before would be her future fate.

"Anna, don't be so depressed. We have guns, we still have guns, calm down! We have to leave the company quickly now. This place is close to Central Park. It is too dangerous. We can't stay here any longer! Now that the rain has stopped and everyone else has left, we have to leave here quickly! Find another place as far away from Central Park and suburban fields as possible." The man pulled the woman to pack up and ran out.

He had to find a place to protect himself and his girlfriend. Even if the animals were all transformed, they would be able to survive with guns and firearms...

The man and woman fled quickly to the underground garage.

For a time, similar things were happening all over the world, whether in Country A or elsewhere.

Especially in those places that are already rich in animal and plant resources, the changes are so great that people are almost afraid to go out.

However, some fishermen who originally lived by the sea and made a living by fishing were in big trouble.

Previous global earthquakes and hailstorms have long made fishermen witness the power of nature. Many fishermen's homes have been severely damaged due to previous disasters, and they are waiting for these natural disasters to subside so that they can go out to sea to fish and earn some money to support themselves and return home.

But they didn't expect that they would encounter huge trouble when they went out to sea this time.

The coral reefs and plants on the seafloor grew wildly, and the once azure sea surface was now covered in layers of green. Some were marine plankton, others were algae. Navigation routes that once allowed ships to pass freely were now blocked by the plants. Some marine plants even sprouted on ships. Some unlucky ships, lacking horsepower, even had their propellers entangled by the plants, rendering them inoperable!

In addition to the wildly growing plants in the sea, the growth rates of the giant whales, sharks and other sea creatures in the sea are equally astonishing and terrifying!

One of the fishing boats that was sailing and fishing was affected by the storm. The fish and shrimps that were originally caught in the net bags and dragged in the sea grew and changed rapidly. The weight of the net bags full of fish and shrimps almost dragged the entire fishing boat into the sea!

As for the fish and shrimp that were previously placed in the barrels and the cabin, although the changes were not as amazing as those in the sea, they were compensated by the number, and soon the cabin was almost bursting!

"Hurry, hurry! Throw away all the fish and the fishing net. Cut it off quickly!" The captain roared at the boat regardless of the strong wind at sea.

This was the first time he discovered that the quality of the fishing nets on the boat was too good, which was not a good thing!

Each fishing boat like theirs has its own weight limit. After sailing on the sea for several days, they were supposed to return with a full load, which was a very happy thing. However, after the huge change...

The weight of these seafood far exceeds the load-bearing limit of the entire fishing boat!

This sudden increase in weight almost destroyed the entire ship!

The captain had a grim look on his face. He ordered his men to cut the fishing net and throw out some seafood in the cabin.

"Yes! Let's go right away!" Facing the violent storm at sea, a sailor groped forward, took out the dagger from his waist and pulled the fishing net line hard, while other crew members quickly ran to deal with other seafood in the cabin.

For a moment, the entire ship was in chaos.

Looking at the rolling waves on the sea and the huge shark that was looming, the captain now only wanted to take the 11 people on his boat ashore safely. He no longer had any thoughts about other seafood!

Whether on land or in water.

This global mutation of plants and animals completely stunned humans, who had not yet fully recovered from the previous global earthquake!

No one, whether ordinary people or scientists, can explain what caused this sudden rainstorm, and no one can explain why a rainstorm can cause changes in animals and plants all over the world.

The most important thing is that in this evolutionary catastrophe, humans did not undergo any changes. Not only did their body size remain the same, but even their intelligence did not improve.

It's like a crazy global evolutionary celebration, where only humans are excluded from all living things.

…………

He Zhennan and Pang Xiong were born into military families. Although they were not from the same unit as Meng Changlong and his group, they still had a lot of topics to talk about.

Hearing Meng Changlong say that He Zhennan was the soldier king in the last military district competition, many soldiers following Meng Changlong immediately looked at He Zhennan with shining eyes. If it weren't for the wrong timing, some of the foolish and bold ones might have come forward to challenge He Zhennan to a competition.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. As a man, you will always have some dreams of your own.

These people looked at He Zhennan with shining eyes, and their previous concerns and vigilance were immediately eliminated. At that time, a few people still felt that He Zhennan looked a little familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen him. They just thought that he was in the army and they accidentally saw his photo in a military magazine, so they knew him.

This matter was quickly put behind the minds of those people. Everyone was discussing how to return to Wanxi Village later, and also mentioned the situations that both sides encountered on the road.

He Zhennan and his group and Meng Changlong and his group came from different directions. After communicating with each other, they knew more and more about the changes and developments after last night's storm.

He Zhennan did not hide anything and directly told Meng Changlong and his group what he had seen and heard along the way.

It turned out that as early as yesterday afternoon, He Zhennan and his group had crossed the border between the neighboring F Province and J Province, avoiding the direction of Ningyong County. They took a detour from Yunhai City to pick up people before rushing here.

Because it was dark last night, and there were old people and women in their group, it was not convenient for them to walk at night, so they randomly found an abandoned house on the street and moved in. However, they did not expect the huge changes after the storm last night, causing the already dilapidated abandoned house to collapse directly due to the wildly growing trees and weeds around it. Otherwise, if He Zhennan and his group were not good at fighting and were very alert when sleeping at night, they might have died in the abandoned house last night!

"Oh, those plants grew like crazy last night. They were even more amazing than the special effects in TV and movies! To use the words I used to read in novels, this is completely another form of doomsday!" A soldier sighed after hearing this. "The previous national earthquake buried many people underground, and a large number of houses were destroyed by the quake. Many houses are uninhabitable and no one lives in them anymore. These abandoned houses have no one to take care of them, so they are prone to problems. Plus, our area is in the suburbs, the countryside, and there are far more plants and animals than in the city... After this change, it's normal for houses to be damaged."

"Xiao Zhou is right. When we followed the commander out of the village, I saw a big tree with a red roof hanging on it! I don't know how that tree grew." Another soldier next to him touched his chin and sighed.

Let alone anything else, no one knew what was wrong with the roof. Even if a tree pierced through a normal roof, there would only be a big hole, but the roof of that house collapsed completely and grew directly on the treetops along with the dense leaves!

Everyone was talking about it. If it weren't for this sudden change, they probably would never have imagined that such a bold move would happen in their entire lives.

I’ve seen many cases of garbage being thrown from high-rise buildings and hanging on treetops, but this is the first time I’ve seen garbage hanging from a rooftop!

"None of this is a good sign. I don't know why you little bastards are talking so excitedly. In just a short while, the world has become unrecognizable to us. Who knows what the world will be like in the future." Yue Junhong patted the shoulders of the two little bastards with shining eyes beside him, and sighed to He Zhennan, "I don't have any luck at all now. When the earthquake happened before, I could still comfort myself that it was just an earthquake. As long as it passed, everything would be fine. But too many things happened one after another. These natural disasters that have never happened before continued. I am afraid that other bad things will happen in the future."

Based on the conditions of last summer and winter, Yue Junhong has no doubt that this summer and winter will be very difficult for everyone. High temperatures, drought, low temperatures, and heavy snow—each of these seems simple and everyone knows them, but when combined together, they become incredibly powerful…

Especially when all of these are moving towards their limits, I don’t know whether everyone can withstand future changes.
